Quiet is better than loud.

Good design is innovative. Good design must be useful. Good design is aesthetic design. Good design makes a product understandable. Good design is honest. Good design is unobtrusive. Good design is long-lasting. Good design is consistent in every detail. Good design is environmentally friendly. And last but not least, good design is as little design as possible.

The composition of these rooms represents the basic intention behind my design: simplicity, essentiality and openness.

Indifference towards people and the reality in which they live is actually the one and only cardinal sin in design.

Design should not dominate things, should not dominate people. It should help people. That’s its role.

We designers, we don’t work in a vacuum. We need business people. We are not the fine artists we are often confused with.

I don’t like computers. I still like to do my drawings by hand.

Nothing works without details. They are everything, the baseline of quality.

Good design is long-lasting! It avoids being fashionable and therefore never appears antiquated...

Good design is thorough down to the last detail – Nothing must be arbitrary or left to chance. Care and accuracy in the design process show respect towards the consumer.
